Detroit's Twiztid to Celebrate 25 Years of Horrorcore with Fright Fest and Astronomicon. Here's a look at their upcoming tour and conventions.

The Detroit hip-hop horrorcore duo, Twiztid, is gearing up for the second leg of its highly anticipated Freek Show tour. Taking to the stage this Devil's Night at Saint Andrew’s Hall, the special annual show, Fright Fest, will kick off what promises to be an unforgettable Halloween celebration. In support of their 25th anniversary of sophomore album Freek Show, Twiztid has planned a cross-country trek that concludes in mid-November.

Once the tour wraps up, Twiztid is set to dive into Astronomicon 9, a family-friendly pop-culture convention they've been hosting since its inception. This year's event will return to the Ann Arbor Marriott Ypsilanti at Eagle Crest on April 10-12. Fans can look forward to an action-packed weekend filled with themed activities and exciting guests.

Fans of Twiztid have plenty of reasons to get excited for what lies ahead, and it seems like they'll be well-stocked when it comes to upcoming events. Mark your calendars as the duo gets ready to celebrate their quarter century milestone in style.
